Graphics bug with map editor

Dear Dev Team,

I have created a map 1000/1000 on the map editor and i get this graphical error, the red line is map border:

It happens on all sides of the map.

I have tried running it on low graphics, windowed mode, tried the steam launch settings from here:
viewtopic.php?t=9300

EDIT 2: seems scrolling in a little bit from max zoom out, reduces the issue. Can the borders of the map in the map editor be hard locked, as i'm assuming the map generator is infinite at stock, therefore it still "rendering" a map that is just "out of map" texture/tile.

I have now tested this on a friends laptop too.
Please advise.

My System:
i5-6600K @ 3.5Ghz
16GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce GTX970
Win 10 64bit
Edit: Factorio Version 0.13.2 Build 24011
Kind regards

13.2 is extremely old, try if this also happens in 14.13.

Loewchen,

13.2 is the latest Steam version, according to my steam anyway.

Kind regards

It certainly is not, it is not even available to install via steam as it is so old.

Do the following:
  1. opt in the "0.14-experimental..." beta through steam. To find out how, make a click on the "update issues" link in my signature
  2. start the game and test if the issue is still occurring.
  3. close the game
  4. make a post here and upload the factorio-current log-file (do not just post the content, upload the complete file) look for the "Upload attachment" link when making the new post. To find out where to find the log, make a click on the "log-file" link in my signature.
That way we should be able to circumvent the quest of finding out what version you are using.

This happens when you go to the edge of the generated map and zoom out further than the game normally allows. Graphical oddities show up because the game isn't designed to zoom out that far or be near the edge of the generated map. Normally you'd be stopped or more chunks would generate.

There's no actual game breaking bug - just don't go that far out on a limited map in the map editor.
